Redstone Rig featured in Smith Journal

Smith Journal is a quarterly Australian magazine which takes "unexpected, interesting, funny and sometimes complicated stories and tells them the way you would to a bunch of friends at the pub."

Each issue they feature a variety of products that readers might want to buy especially if they really like to buy things that most other people have not yet bought.

The current glossy issue includes the KAPtery's Redstone Rig Kit in the list of potentially desirable consumer goods. Their blurb about it (below) is not really a description of the Redstone Rig but a paean to Public Lab where you can buy one.

Not only the Redstone Rig, but all of the KAPtery rig kits are now available at the Public Lab Store. The Public Lab Store ships just about everywhere in the world, so it is much easier to get things shipped internationally from there. Although the KAPtery also does international shipping, you must contact us first to find out how much it costs. I look forward to the orders rolling in from Down Under.
